Still needs medical clearance to play, but says he's feeling much better than over the weekend and is hoping to finish out the season in AHL game action.

Will keep updated...

Kirk can/will Spooner be a black Ace? I don't think there is any chance he would play in postseason and for some reason I think it soul affect his contract if he did. But I would think it would be interesting to have him get some practice time and potentially just hang out with the team for a while.

Yes, he could do that and it probably makes sense for Boston to bring him up for that purpose.

Hamilton could have played for Providence if his team had been eliminated in the 1st round of the OHL playoffs. Niagara wasn't and Spooner's club (Sarnia) was, hence his presence on the AHL club.

We'll see him in due time. You can tell the P. Bruins season is done when they start bringing in the prospects. And sadly some of them have done better than the guys who have been here all year. cough, Colby Cohen, cough.....

There's also a nice article from Mark Divver on defensemen Kevan Miller, whose having a great rookie year. He plays a good physical game and has racked up a more-than-respectable 21 points this year. He's also a +16, easily best on the team, and has close to 100 pims.

Spoons has put together a few nice games in Providence (going back to last year), good to hear, I won`t put a ton of stock in it, but it can`t ever be a bad thing getting a taste of pro hockey.

Looking forward to what the kid may do down the road, not sure he`s NHL ready, but I`m more than willing to wait a year or two for a kid and allow him to develop, especially one with the skillset this kid has, and I`ve read lots about him (most recently from OOG) in regards to his fantastic improvement on the Defensive side of things.
